Void Surfacing

Withhold acceptance
 When we so easily forgive a child
 Never asking twice for another
 But we tell ourselves that we know better
 An attempt to cauterize the mistakes
 Love was branded on your skin (on your skin)
 And now it sinks deeper
 Ignite the innocence, the panic
 Another night as unknowing takes (the panic)
 Another night of the time, to breathe (abandoned)
 Now your eyes turn to your soul
 And punish the inner child
 Whose laughter you have stolen
 Corrupting his freedom
 Burden to another (orphaned, unseen)
 Burden to another
 Replaced by a sin, panic
 Another night as unknowing takes (the panic)
 Another night of the time, to breathe (abandoned)
 Ruthless acts in the black
 To go back to the garden
 That is all it ever was, a selfish bargain
 Ruthless acts in the black
 To go back to the garden
 Between the love and the dissipation
 You chose to walk

 Burden to another (orphaned, unseen)
 Burden to another (martyr for nothing)
